The Swedish-American Chamber of Commerce SF/SV was delighted to have world renowned speaker, Patrick Schwerdtfeger, discuss social media at the Urban Tavern, in downtown San Francisco.

In front of a distinguished group of movers and shakers from the local Bay Area Business Community, Schwerdtfeger talked inspiringly on the topic of “Social Media Victories―Real Businesses, Real Campaigns, Real Results.”

Parick Schwerdtfeger provided the attendees with tips, pointers and many amusing, real-life examples of how to use social media to your advantage. All the while he fielded questions and accommodated different views on this, his forte as well as his bread and butter. “I don’t pretend to have all the answers, but this is what I do and it gave my own and other people’s businesses a real boost,” Schwerdtfeger stated.
One attendee, Helen Luttemo, of Alain Pinel Realtors, said, “This was really interesting; I never realized all the nifty things you were able to do with social media!”

Schwerdtfeger presented his book, “Webify Your Business―Internet Marketing Secrets for the Self-Employed,” which effectively works like a roadmap to grow one’s business online amid what he has dubbed the “raging waters” of the World Wide Web.

The knowledgeable speaker very precisely ended the session without skipping a beat in his presentation. But the crowd would not let him leave until a brimful of questions had been asked, necessitating Schwerdtfeger to stay another hour after the luncheon had ended. And maybe that was the best review of all.
